How Africans sold Africans into slavery...

[Richard Akindele]

How did Africans end up being sold into slavery?

I think our ancestors were weak minded people. Just the same way that most blacks today are weak minded people. These ancestors could have stood up against slave hunters, and the course of history totally changed as a result.

Instead, leaders got bribed into selling their own people to the white man. And of course, once the white man discovered that we don't have a standup attitude, that we're always looking for somebody to lead us, they kept coming to steal more and more.

I've never heard anybody blame our predecessors for slavery. Only the white man got blamed.
